Well, if you don’t live in the EU, it doesn’t directly matter, other than in your ability to communicate with people in the EU.
If you live in the EU, then I suspect that talking to European political entities like the various Pirate parties, or to EDRi to try and get it legislatively-reverted is probably a step to take a little before killing and dying.
If you live in the EU and it doesn’t get legislatively-reverted and you consider it to be totally unacceptable, well, there are a number of countries in the area that I imagine people can migrate to, like the UK or Switzerland or Norway. I’d probably look into that before the whole killing thing.
Oppression anywhere is oppression everywhere.
I don’t want Europeans legislating rules for me in the US. I wouldn’t try to legislate for them.
I think that this is a really bad law, but the Europeans are gonna have to determine what kind of society and rules they want themselves.
Did they determine it? Like I am pretty sure they didn’t have a vote where people voted “yes please give away all of my personal data to the government”. You know, democracy
